High Stakes Treasure Map

Map Locations

The High Stakes Treasure Map is a treasure map in Red Dead Redemption 2.

The map leading to the treasure is rumored to be cursed and many have died looking for it. There are three maps leading to different locations.

Locations

First Map

The first map can be obtained in a random encounter that will only occur after the stranger mission "All That Glitters". The player will encounter a treasure hunter looking at the map for the next clue. If the player greets or approaches, he will quickly close the map and will get on his horse. If the player hogties or kills him they will obtain the treasure map and will lose honor when looting him. The man can be found between Diablo Ridge and Riggs Station. If the player lets him go several times without looting him, the map will be available to buy at the Fence. The first map will lead the player to Cumberland Falls and the player will head behind the waterfall to obtain the second map.

Second Map

The map will point the player towards Barrow Lagoon, a frozen lake in the middle of the West Grizzlies, to the northwest of Valentine.

Third Map

The third and last map will take the player north-east of Fort Wallace. It's on the large rock formation and the player will have to jump down on a small rock path.

Treasure

At the end of the path, the player will find three gold bars are hidden between rocks. These gold bars can be sold at any Fence for $500 each and the player will also receive $1500 for completing the map.

Trivia

• The text on the third map is written in Sütterlin script, an old German handwriting style. There is a systematic error in the writing, however, where the letter 's' at the end of a word would be written differently then in the middle of the word.
